Before upgrading Trust Protection Platform or the Server Agent
Before upgrading either Trust Protection Platform or the Server Agent, verify that the functionality you need is supported by the versions of Trust Protection Platform and the Server Agent to which you are upgrading.
DID YOU KNOW? Server Agent version numbers correspond with the Trust Protection Platform version number. For example, Server Agent version 23.1 shipped with Trust Protection Platform version 23.1. If you're not sure which version of the Server Agent is installed on a system, see Determining which version of the Server Agent is installed.
Server Agent upgrade and compatibility is guaranteed for two (2) years from a version's original release date according to Supported upgrade models and paths. For more information, see Venafi Product Life Cycle.
Interoperability between Server Agent and Trust Protection Platform is shown in tables below.
NOTE If you are upgrading to the latest Server Agent from a version other than one of the supported versions, you first need to upgrade to a version on the supported upgrade path, and then upgrade to the latest version. For additional upgrade considerations, see Important Considerations before upgrading Venafi Platform.
